  • Perform routine preventative maintenance on facility systems, including tasks such as HVAC filter changes, fire extinguisher inspections, and exit sign inspections.
  • Complete basic plumbing repairs, including addressing leaky sinks, faucets, and other minor plumbing issues.
  • Carry out basic electrical repairs such as replacing light switches, ballasts, and power outlets.
  • Perform minor carpentry and drywall repairs as needed to maintain facility appearance and functionality.
  • Use hand tools and power tools safely and effectively to perform maintenance and repair tasks.
  • Troubleshoot mechanical, electrical, and facility-related issues and implement appropriate corrective actions.
  • Follow directions from the Chief Engineer to support overall building operations and maintenance priorities.
  • Work in professional healthcare environments, ensuring minimal disruption to occupants and adherence to facility expectations.
  • Communicate clearly and professionally with clients, tenants, and staff to explain work being performed and any required follow-up.
  • Document completed work and report issues, delays, or additional needs to the appropriate personnel.
